Support DC and Stop the Trump Takeover!
DC demands an immediate withdrawal of federal troops from the District and an end to the federalization of the local police department.
DC communities are powerful, connected, and under attack. Federal troops, national guards from multiple states, and local DC police - now led by Trump - have launched an assault to harass, surveil, and detain Black and brown working-class residents, immigrants, youth, and unhoused neighbors.
Together we demand:
An immediate withdrawal of federal troops from the District
An end to the federalization of the local police department
The right to protect our communities in the future, permanently
WE ARE ALL DC
AND WE THE PEOPLE KEEP US SAFE
What can you do?
March!
City residents are planning a march on September 6th to call for the immediate removal of federal troops and protections put in place to stop this from happening again. We’re all invited to join them—if you’re able, we encourage you to take a trip to D.C. and support them.
Write!
FreeDC is asking all allies, across the nation, to write to our representatives in Congress demanding the removal of federal troops from the city. D.C. has no Congressional representation, so they’re relying on us to make their voices heard.
In your letter, demand the following:
Support the termination resolution introduced by Rep. Jamie Raskin and Senator Chris Van Hollen.
Reject the bills to extend the federal occupation period.
Do everything possible to withdraw federal law enforcement agencies and the National Guard from DC.
Donate!
Organizations supporting the people on the ground need donations to make sure they can keep supporting their populations. If you’re able, please consider donating to some of those orgs:
